If you are offended by the things I say, imagine the stuff I hold back.

My daughter tripped and fell earlier this year and broke the bottom half off of her two front teeth. Very painful!
She got them fixed the next day, but they are still sensitive. Dentists these days can do very good work.

Reminds me of a good few years ago when I was doing a design buyoff for some tooling for the new Mini, who had just been brought out by BMW.
Everything was a complete mess and everyone seemed to be fighting for power in their “new” positions as well as a group of guys over from Germany overseeing things.
Everything really dragged on and everything was discussed to the Nth degree and to say I was getting somewhat frustrated is an understatement. Finally we got around to timing on a part that had been changed multiple times and one chap who had been a pain all meeting said “I still want it for Christmas” to which I replied “Yeah and I want a Scaletrix and I think I have got more chance than you of getting it” Which I thought was very witty and funny, unfortunately no one else in the room did and it was one of those real tumbleweed moments.
I still chuckle about it now, I never did get my Scaletrix and he didn’t get his part for that Christmas either.
